Chipping: How chip resistant is this after years of use?

I have had several pieces of LC for a few years now...like three years. I take care not to knock them around the kitchen, wash them carefully in the sink, etc, and have not had any trouble with chipping. Also, LC has a great warranty against manufacturing defects.

I have not had any problems with chipping or shattering. The only problem I have had is that the top cap has broken on two of mine but were replaced by the company free of charge.

Hey, I've had it just over a year. I use it maybe once a month or two, since I make a big batch and freeze them. It still works like new, no problems, but I can't say how it would do under harder use. The only concern I would have is the durability of the coating, but it's been fine so far.

I have been using mine for a few months and so far the color is holding up well. No chips or fading.

Our pot is at least 3 years old and we have not had any peeling or chipping. We use it often and always wash it by hand. Have hou contacted the manufacturer?

Yes, it can chip...we have one bowl that has a chip from 2+ years of service, but that is not a lot. We have 12 plates, 12 salad plates, 15 bowls (one broke and one chipped). Not bad for the length of time in service. They do offer replacement items also...

I don't know. I have this beautiful set for almost a year and I use it daily. Nothing chipped, cracked or broke so far. Getting a lot of compliments. I absolutely love this set. It's simple but elegant enough for formal dinners.

I bought standard black drain pieces at Menards. I was worried that they might chip, but my plumber said that the kind of finish used should hold up well. After using the sink for a number of months now, I agree with his assessment -- there's no indication that they will chip.

No chipping and it's had some heavy duty use. I haven't tried the dishwasher yet since I've only used water in it but I can certainly confirm that the water stays refreshingly chilled for 12 hours and that includes a trip today in 104 degrees. I'm definitely buying another!

Hi Kathy: Contact the manufacturer directly. The chips last for about 1 year, but longevity is influenced by the specific viscosity of the essential oils that you are using. I own 3 of their hand made wood and clay models and they work well. I've had a few chips go bad while under warranty and they sent out new chips promptly.

We've had our hydro flasks for just over a month now and they haven't chipped at all, and my kids use them too so they get bumped around. I know someone else who's had hers for almost a year and it is in great shape, no chips. We love this water bottle and highly recommend it!

Significantly, one of mine took a chip out of a plywood workbench with little to no damage.The plastic ones I've used on the other hand seem to shatter whenever they touch anything other than air.

I've had mine installed for about a year now and so far it still looks perfect. I've heard that Fireclay tends to chip more easily, but I don't have any first hand information if that is true or not.

I a not sure but I used it as a clear coat on a helmet and it hasn't chipped a bit even after 2+ years with lots of riding in 100+ temperatures,rain and snow.

Absolutely! We have had ours for something like a year now and have cooked on it numerous times. We've not had any problems with paint chips, or rust or anything like that. It really us a great investment.

I, too, have had mine for a year or so and they have not chipped while nested. However, I would recommend either cheap washcloths between each bowl or some kind of soft, thin material to line each bowl; but even those precautions will not prevent chipping when the bowls are in use, or being hand washed. Good luck.

I've had one of these knives for about a year without it chipping off. They are made really well. I did attempt to use one of them to chip through some frozen solid spinach one time and the coating did slightly chip. I don't know what it's made of but they work and don't rust
